I was pretty impressed with the Jets. Kept answering back against a very fast and skilled Avs team. Didn't see that in them, but to be fair, I rarely watched Jets games this season. Really don't mind seeing them do well, unless the internet Jets fans get too arrogant, which I've seen a bit of already after Game 1... As others have mentioned, it's crazy that the Avs didn't try to address their goaltending. I get that Georgiev was an All Star, but acquiring a capable veteran backup seems like it would've been cheap and smart, but I suppose that might also affect his confidence. Hellebuyck was also leaky as hell though, so maybe bad goaltending vs bad goaltending will be the story of the series.
